Come on folks, lets not fall out over ancient history like Chris Caisley and Isteyn Harris. Especially not when there is a very real existential threat to the club, right now in the form of the Special Measures we are placed in. This is not some box ticking exercise. The RFL place clubs in Special Measures because they have serious fears about their financial stability. This invariably means large, unpaid debts that have been due for many many months, or even longer, and winding up orders. This is what we should be focusing on, along with a budget that hasn't been accepted. Im not privy to what the issues are at the Bulls, but they will be very serious ones for this to happen.Chalmers says he hopes it will be resolved soon. Well don't we all, but even if it is, why has it taken several months to resolve? If we are taken out of SM, we will have to operate (just for once) for at least 12 months with income exceeding expenditure. So other posters who have referred to young players being sold and contracts being declared null and void are not as wide of the mark as we may think.

What a load of tripe, dear me!

Does anyone else think it a good idea that we get back on topic?

...and yes, I know, I've had my two pennerth..

We have just signed ethan ryan,is he ok.?

Think he could thrive under Tony Smiths expansive rugby. Outstanding finisher, great at attacking a high kick, very good defensively too.

His weakness is he won't make you many yards scooting from his own line.

Excited to see how he will go. His try scoring record speaks for itself though

Great finisher, decent pace but not amazing. Very skinny though so don't expect much from him bringing the ball away in your own 20.
I hope he gets a shot in your 17, he deserves it.

He's absolutely gash and has a dreadful attitude. I'd send him back.

If he is a direct replacement for Ryan Shaw they've upgraded. Ethan is a lethal finisher and has scored some unbelievable tries for us over the last 3 seasons. In a one on one attacking position I always fancy him to get the upper hand. It's a shame to see him leave but we've hung on to him longer than I'd have expected. I hope he goes well for KR next season in Super League.

Thanks to all.Good luck for next season.

Says on love rugby widnes are after Jake Webster

Yes I saw that being thrown around on Facebook.

It's strange - Widnes are going part-time, so why would Webster leave a FT contact with us half way through that contract to go PT with Widnes?

....unless [iwe [/iare the ones trying to offload him?
